Overview

About Knightlands Farm Cottage

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Knightlands Farm Cottage is a detached house in Barnet (EN5 4RE). It has a recorded floor area of 167 m² (around 1798 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (March 2015) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 103). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 167 m² it's 21.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (212 m² median across 5 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £761,000 sits 1876.6% above the 1998 sale of £38,500. 4 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include solar panel installation and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.
